Neural effects of deep brain stimulation on reward and loss anticipation and food viewing in anorexia nervosa: a pilot study

ConclusionThe results showed a difference in the response of reward-related brain areas post-DBS. This supports the hypotheses that the reward circuitry is involved in the pathogenesis of AN and that DBS affects responsivity of reward-related brain areas.Trial registration Registered in the Netherlands Trial Register (https://www.trialregister.nl/trial/3322): NL3322 (NTR3469).
